Where do you turn when your soul feels thirsty? In this episode of the Unhurried Living Podcast, Alan Fadling reflects on Psalm 87:7, “All my fresh springs are in You.” We explore how God alone is our true source of renewal, even when we’re tempted to drink from counterfeit springs like busyness, control, or distraction.

Drawing on the imagery of living water and daily bread, Alan shares how this one line of scripture can become a simple, grounding prayer to carry through your day. Discover how God’s presence can be a hidden well of strength in your work, relationships, and everyday life.

If you’ve ever felt spiritually dry, restless, or weary, this conversation will help you return to the fresh, unending stream of God’s life in you.

What you’ll learn:

  • Why Psalm 87:7 offers such a powerful picture of spiritual renewal
    • How to recognize “counterfeit springs” that leave us empty
    • Practical ways to carry scripture into the ordinary moments of your day
    • How prayer, silence, and Sabbath help us drink deeply from God’s presence

Listen in and discover how God can be your fresh spring of life, energy, and joy.
